Request Apps

Got a suggestion for an app that should be portable? Post it here.

For anyone who wants to request ubuntu live CD.

An ubuntu live usb disk has problems booting in older systems, since their BIOS isn't set up to boot from USB. You have to edit the BIOS settings manually, and allow booting from your flash drive. But, this can be a problem in public places, because when they see you tweaking with their computer's BIOS, you're probably gonna get kicked out. This is a problem with mostly all live CD operating systems. The only practical way to run a linux distro off a USB disk is probably to use a Virtual Machine, unless you're running a newer computer.

It's such a wonderful thing and I found an old topic about it, but I am worried it won't work for gimp2.6.7.

Heres a page where you can download it from: http://www.gimp.org/
and Here is the page on how to use it:http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Using_GAP/

Please make a portable version. I really want to use it.

could you please make an app that will password protect the whole usb drive? there are other software out there but most of them can only protect individual folders or files. can you make one that protects the whole flashdrive?
